智利自治大学的帕特里夏·洛佩斯-莱加雷在她的研究中分析了近5 500名智利人的数据,发现那些很晚才吃饭的人,其平均的身体质量指数(BMI指数)要比那些吃饭较早的人多0.5。这对一个身高约1.63 m的女性而言,意味着体重增加2~3磅(约合0.9~1.36 kg)。根据这项研究,前者的腰围也要比后者粗2英寸(约合5 cm),这就意味着前者要穿大2个尺码的衣服。 Patricia Lopes-Le Gare, of the Autonomous University of Chile, analyzed data from nearly 5,500 Chileans in her study and found that those who ate very late had an average body mass index (BMI) 0.5 more than those who eat earlier. For a woman about 1.63 m tall, this means an increase of 2 to 3 pounds (about 0.9 to 1.36 kg). According to the study, the waist circumference of the former is also 2 inches thick than the latter (about 5 cm), which means that the former wants to wear clothes of two sizes.
